Council Leaders Christmas Card

Published: 18/12/2015

A local school pupil has won a competition to have her artwork used on the official Christmas card sent out by the Leader of Flintshire County Council. Every year Councillor Aaron Shotton invites schoolchildren to draw a seasonal picture with the winning design being printed professionally. This year it was the turn of pupils from Ysgol Cae’r Nant Primary School, Connahs Quay and Councillor Shotton visited the school to meet some of those who took part in the competition which was won by Year 5 pupil Georgia Manifold. Georgia receives tickets for the Cinderella pantomime at Theatr Clwyd. Runners up were Jake, Caitlyn, Lottie and Sam. Councillor Shotton said: The standard was very high and I was very impressed with the creativity of all the designs. The pupils made a huge effort and it was very difficult to choose a winner. The card is sent out to all Councillors and Government representatives including the First Minister for Wales, Carwyn Jones AM.
